Re^5: Fetching unique owner name

[JaWi]

Hi,

Of course! Your right! I should stop coding Perl from the head and use the interpreter instead. If I tested it first, I would have come to the following code:

...
@temp = sort map { ( split )[ 2 ]; } `ls -l /directory/pth/here`;
foreach( @temp )
{
  $authors{$_}=1 if not $authors{$_} and length $_;
}
...

Indeed, I made a little typo in my previous solution, $authors{$} had to be $authors{$_};

Thanks, now I just have to sort it and I will be okay. Again thanks for all your assistance!
